Anthropic has added two new things Claude can build with your team, and taken a third out of beta. Per its launch article, Claude Whiteboards and Claude Sheets are in beta, and Claude Dashboards is now generally available under a new name, Claude Data. All three are on paid plans, on web, desktop and mobile.
What each one does
- Whiteboards: a shared board. You talk a plan through and Claude lays it out as a timeline with owners and dates; in a retro it can group everyone’s notes by theme and draft action items. You can drag a box around part of the board and ask about it, then turn the board into a doc or deck, or move it to Lucid, Miro or Vani by Zoho.
- Sheets: spreadsheets with tabs, formulas, formatting and drop-downs, often from one prompt such as “a hiring budget”. Claude edits in the cells and outlines each change. Anthropic says the feature set is simple for now; export to .xlsx or CSV, or continue in Airtable, Asana, monday.com or Smartsheet.
- Claude Data: the former Dashboards, which we covered at its October beta. New are certified queries (your data team marks the metric definitions everyone should use, and charts built on them carry a badge), live sharing, data stories and narrated videos, caching with per-dashboard refresh, and tracked changes with rollback. Certified queries and live sharing are still in beta. With live sharing, viewers see results without connector access and can run only queries you approved.
Interactive connectors also changed: partner apps such as Adobe, Atlassian, Box and Notion can now open as full apps beside the chat.
Meetings: announced, not on Anthropic’s page yet
TechCrunch reports Claude Meetings puts Claude into a video call as a visible participant that drafts plans and fills a whiteboard while people talk, in beta on Team and Enterprise and on Google Meet first. TechCrunch says it posts a notice in the meeting chat and will not join calls with external guests unless an admin allows it. Anthropic’s own overview says only that Meetings is “coming soon”.
Admin defaults
On Team plans, all three are on by default. On Enterprise, Whiteboards and Sheets start off, and Claude Data turns on by default on 19 November 2026. The switches are under Organization settings > Artifacts.
Why this matters
Claude now keeps more of the work product inside Claude, so the question for teams is less “can it draft this” and more “where does the source of truth live”. Certified queries are the part worth copying even if you never use Claude Data: one approved definition per metric stops two dashboards disagreeing in the same meeting. If you run an Enterprise workspace, decide on Claude Data before 19 November, because it flips on that day. For the models behind these features, see our Claude Fable 5.2 and Mythos 5.2 coverage.
